MAINE DISPATCHES.
THE CROCKETT MURDER TRIAL,
BELFAST. Jan. %.

BELFAST Jan. 90.
The fourth day of the murder trial com
menced with the opening by Col. Foger for
the defense, lasting one hour. He denied
the whole government theory of guilt, and
should show that the parties had lived happi.
ly together, that the deceased was peculiar,
almost insane, was in poor health, despon-
dent, and had threatened and attempted sui
eide.
Mrs. Crockett, the accused, was on the
stand for two hours. She testified to domes-
tic history, and the last separation of five
months from her hus band was at his instance.
She described his last sickness and death
and swore she had never seen or used poison
in her life. She denied the statements of
the government witnesses as to her wishing
disappearance and the search for him BY
neighbors last wear. Also testified to once
finding HIM with a rope around his neck
He said he as discouraged and tired of life
The court adjourned before her testimony
closed.
In the afternoon Mrs. Crockett was vigor-
ously cross-examined for two hours by ATTY
Gen. Baker. She said she believed her hus-
band committed suicide from an attempt to
hang himself before, and repeated her decla-
rations that no one could have put poison in
his food without her knowledge, and said
that since last June they had lived happily
together. Her direct testimony on principal
points was not much shaken.
Mrs Elsy w. Bragdon a married daugh-
ter of the prisoner, testified to attentions be-
slowed on Crockett by her mother, to his re-
peated assertions that he did not wish to live,
and that she ate some of the apples left over
after the dinner without harm. She contra
dicttd the statement of government witness
es about Mrs. Crockett's expressions concern
ing her husband. No other witnes. of the 3
called for the prisoner were examined.

MORE TROUBLE.
An Exciting week Anticipated in the
New Jersey Legislature.

TRENTON, N. j., Jan. %.
1t is stated that the Senate will organize
Tuesday, Another lively week is anticipated
in the House as certain democrats express a
determination to unseat Speaker Baird. As
a precaution the speaker has already drawn
his salary for the entire session This, how
ever, would not interfere with the democratic
plan which is apt to be carried out unless
Baird promises to vote for Albeit in the SEN
atorial contest. With his vote the democrats
would have the necessary fl votes to elect
Albeit, provided the Senate organize.
A rumor prevails that the republicans are
holding out strong Inducements to Baird to
throw overheard entirely the democrats,
from whom he can never expect another
office. There is also strong reason to be-
lieve that the two labor assemblymen are
dallyng with the Sewall emissaries, and with
them and Baird, Sewell can win. Other talk
again is il these three go to Sewell, the dem
ocrstc majority in the assembly will unseat
more republicans from the disputed districts
to make good the defections. There are ten
disputed seats in all.

Purposes.

CHICAGO, Jan. %.
A scheme to use Gen. Logan's name for
swindIing purposes was disclosed here today.
Chicago, Milwaukee and other cities are
said to have been extensively worked by the
sharpers, twenty orders having been taken in
Milwaukee alone.
The solicitors represented that they about

the life of Gen. Logan. Fifty thousand copies
were to be issued and the book was to sell
at 10 cents to the intended victims The
back page of the cover in the whole edition
was offered for advertising purposes for $50.
Mrs. Logan, it was statad, would partici
pate in the profits. Investigation has shown

the few copies delivered to the victims.
Members of the G. A. X. repudiate the idea
that their organization has any connection
with the matter.
w. F. Harmeyer of the Chicago Sun Pub
fishing company, who is publishing the book,
claimed to be acting merely as an agent and
processes to know nothing about the adverts-
ing contracts. He refuses to give the names
of the principals.

CLEVELAND, o., Jan. %.
In plain black casket at the morgue to-
day lay the body of Mrs. Ant0inette Cabelek,
the unfortunote mother who, on Thursday,
killed three of her children and fatally
wounded two others and then hanged herself
while insane. Clasped to the bosom of the
dead woman was the body of baby Willie.
In white casket near the black one lay the
bodies of Annie and Mamie, the two other
innocent,. The doors of the morgue were
opened at an early hour this forenoon, and
for nearly five hours stream of sightseers
surged past the two coffins. 1t required the
services of detail of police to keep the
crowd in order. This afternoon the bodies
were buried at the city infrmary farm. No
prayer said or other religious services
attempted. Waller Cabelek and his three
sons who are spared to him rode in a carriage
behind the hearse. The two cofiins were de
posted in one grave. James and Torsis, the
little boy and girl who were so terribly
wounded by their crazed mother, are still
alive at the city hospital.

EIGHT HOURS.
A Great Movement Threatened in Chica.
go in May.
CHICAGO, Jan. %.

CHICAGO, Jan Y.
Another eight hour movement of even
greater magnitude than the one which failed
last year, is being organized by local labor
agitators to be inaugurated May 1st, next.
The various carpenters unions have already
adopted resolutions declaring that they will
demand eight hours pay and at the rate of 35
cents per hour. The other branches of the
building trades are being reorganized as fast
as possible, and they will probably follow
the example of the carpenters in week or
two. 1t is probable that all the building
trades of the ethyl will be consolidated and
organized into a separate district assembly
of the Knights of Labor. Efforts tending to
bring the consolidation about are being made
by members of different unions. There are
upwards of $4,000 members of the builders
trades, who are members of the knights of
Labor, and whose assemblies are divided be-
tween districts "a and 81. They allege that
they are entitled to a separate district of
their own, if only to bring their unions into
closer communication than at present.

The hervy rains which set in on the night of
Jan. 81 prevailed throughout nearly the en-
tire winter wheat belt laying bare wheat
fields over large areas. Without a second
covering of snow the crop is in a certain
amount of peril but no resulting damage has
been reported. The wheat report. from Ohio,
Indiana and Michigan continue almost uni
formly favorable, the latest returns showing
that the fields had been amply protected up
to the approach of the mild winter rain
storm and that grain was looking well. Some
of the southern Illinois and western Missouri
counties report an unfavorable outlook

and Warren counties in Iowa are importing

TRAGEDY In LYNN.
The Wife of a Colored Man Has Her
Throat Cut by Mutual Friend-The
Murderer Attempts TO Take His Own
Life.
LYNN. Jan. 22.

LYNN, Jan. %.
''YOu come to No. 81 Pleasant street and
do what you can. | have got her in the
house. and the man who did it is living out
side with his throat cut. Come quickly, she
is diving" These were the words Of an ex-
cited colored man who rushed into the LYNN
central police station about O'Clock this
evening. Officers at once proceeded in the
ambulance TO the number gwen. Writhing
upon the snow and ice in the yard was a coll
orsd man with his throat cut and in the
house lay colored woman with her throat
cut and bleeding profusely. The wounded
man in the yard fought of the officers with
desperation. He was subdued and placed on
stretcher in the ambulance and taken to the
station. As they drove away the woman ex-
pred. Her name was Ada Tyler, and the
colored man whose throat was cut was Sam
uel Mitchell, who had been in the habit of
calling at the home of Mrs. TYLER. At about
O'Clock this evening Mitchell came to the
hosse and talked Tor while with Mr.. and
Mrs. Tyler. When Mr.. Tyler went ont to
grocery store, Mitchell and Mrs. rvler also
left the house. About o'clock Mr.. ryler
was called to his door by cries Of pete
Pete! Going out he met his wife, and saw
Mitchell stretched upon the snow. Assisting
Mrs Tyler into the house, he found that her
throat was cut, and she totterel and fell t.
the floor. No one could give clear account
of the tragedy No hard words passed be-
tween the parties before they left the house,
and the murdered woman's husband is unable
to assign motive for the terrible crime, as
Mitchell had always appeared to be friendly.
Mrs. Tyler was 26 years of age and was at
times inclined to drink. Mitchell is well
known about the city and is 2S. years old and
fairly good looking.
Since the murder Tyler has been led to
believe that his wife was untrue to him, al
though he had never suspected her before.
However, his suspicious might be an injus-
tice to her. Mitchell's wound is not serious
and he is under arrest He disclNims all
